Professor WinstOn's Expected
Letter.

To the Editor Of the Dispatch:
am an old pupil OF Professor Win
ston's, and look forward with pleasure
TO his answer to the Artesian- well
query. Tie answer was like the Pro
fessor, and "is it fact, sir? reminds
me Of a story that used to go therounds
at college when | was there. PROBES
sor always gave permission to the class
to ask questions about phenomena
which seemed to violate the laws OF
nature. a baseball enthusiast asked
him to explain curve balls, and his re-
ply was "Is it fact. sir?-l don't
believe they curve" Professor was
asked at the first opportunity to watch
the ball and see if it curved. He
was not convinced that it did curve.
Since then he may have changed his
mind. The truth OF this story | do
not vouch for, as il was one OF the col
lege traditions when / arrived there.
saw in northern paper au answer to
a similar query from IN observerOi the
Charleston Artesian wells. | have for
gotten the name Of the paper and the
author, but give the answer for what it
is worth An Artesian well has its
origin in an underground stream, the
source of which is in higher land and
the mouth Of which empties into
some large body OF water. The
flow from the well depends upon
the pressure at the well, and if
the liow Of water from the mouth
of the stream is increased the pressure
at the well is diminished If the flow
OF water at the mouth OF the stream is
diminished the pressure at the we'll is
increased. The rapidity Of the dow at
the mouth Of the stream depends upon
the pressure OF the water above it. At
low water the pressure Of the water at
tie mouth Of the stream is least and
tie flow from the mouth OF the stream
Increases. Therefore the pressure at
the well is least and there is less How
from the well. At full tide the pres
sure at the mouth OF the stream is
greatest. the flow of The stream is re-
tarded and the pressure increased at
the well, and therefore there is the
greatest flow Of water from the well.

Correspondence Of the Richmond Dispatch
NORFOLK, Va, August 10, 1887.
The farmers in the city from the
Southampton section are complaining
Of the effects of the continued wet
weather on the cotton crop. The injury
is now marked, and if the rains con-
tinue as at present much longer the
effect will be serious. Cotton and pea
nuts are the pride and hope of South
ampton, and excessive rains at once
became matter of grave apprehension
TO the farmers when the season is as far
advanced as at present. Daily rains
have been the rnle around Norfolk for
several weeks. The Dismal swamp is
considerably flooded, which materially
interferes with the operations Of the
timber-getters.

MINISTER PUT IN PRISON.
New. Edvnrd r. Dosne Falsely Ac'
cused by spaniards in the
Caroliuc Islands.


Attic Office Of the American Board,
in New York, on Wednesday, dis
patch was received intimating that the
veteran missionary, the Rev. Edward
Il. Doane, who has been arrested and
imprisoned in the Caroline islands,
was charged by some INSCRIPTIONS
foreign traders with melting the natives
to disobey the Governor. The Cover,
nor summoned Mr.. Doane and asked
him il he was innocent or guilty. The
accused answered that he never in his
life advised the inhabitants to be dis
LOYAL or disobedient.
The Governor, however, credited the
misrepresentation of the traders, and
the missionary was condemned. This
account was completely verified by
Captain Bray, of Oakland, CAL, late of
the missionary steamer Morning Star.
Captain Bray got his information from
several men who had come from
Micronesia.
The Spanish Government will be
asked by the Department OF State to
closely investigate the Rev. MIR.
DOaue's case.

John and William were hauling

The locust pests are approaching

While their piercing noise may be
